Architettura Sonora je hčerinska družba enega od svetovno najbolj priznanih izdelovalcev zvočniških »driverjev« B&C Speakers, ki obvladuje 14 % svetovnega tržišča. V svojih zvočnih modulih uporablja posebne izvedbe najboljših profesionalnih zvočnikov lastne proizvodnje. Danes evropsko in svetovno prepoznavno ime ArchitetturaSonora se je po letu 2009 bliskovito prebilo na tržišče kot eden od najzanimivejših inovativnih audio sistemov ter postal vodilna znamka na področju audio instalacij zunanjih in notranjih prostorov. Poglavitna značilnost in prednost teh proizvodov je širok razpon možnosti instalacij zvočnih modulov. S svojo strukturo se ne vsiljujejo in ne spreminjajo prostora ampak se mu tako z obliko kot z materiali prilagajajo ter postanejo njegov sestavni del. Unikatno oblikovani zvočni moduli so iz različnih materialov, od teracotte, različnih vrst marmorja, granita, lesa, pa vse do kompozitnih legur in cementa (design mix concrete). Ustrezen in pozorno izbran nabor omenjenih materijalov ustvarja posebno vzdušje v prostorih in nam omogoča kreacijo unikatnih zvočnih instalacij. Poleg specifičnih oblik se zvočni elementi razlikujejo po namembnosti in sevalnemu kotu emisije zvoka, od omnidirekcionalnega zvoka ki se razširja 360 stopinj naokoli (floorstanding vgradni modeli) do omejenega ali zelo omejenega kota sevanja (Suspended modules).
To create something new and radical you have to start from scratch, questioning the way speakers have been designed and conceived so far. We experience spaces not only by seeing but also by listening. We investigated the relationship of Sound and Nature and the meaning of landscape not as a background to a performance, but as a key component to enhance acoustic experiences.
Every project is customised to match the design and acoustical environment. We work with the client to select the most appropriate materials.

ICARUS
Designed to meet any acoustic requirement
The versatility of the Icarus
The concept behind the NEW PARADIGM OF SOUND set by the new ICARUS Family is best represented by the introduction of the “ICARUS_stand-alone” model, the frst ALL-IN-ONE SYSTEM of this kind offering and extra wide coverage in a visually elegant and reifned audio system, seamlessly integrating with any design or space without compromising sound quality. “ICARUS” is composed by a high performing and extremely compact subwoofer, supporting a metal frame with two satellites that can be calibrated in terms of emission width thanks to their adjustable mechanics. This ultra-compact system delivers a crystal-clear sound produced by the two adjustable 3,5” satellites supported by a deep, uncompressed bass, even at high output levels, released by its 8-inch woofer. The ICARUS_STAND-ALONE was conceived and designed to meet any acoustic need, from a contemporary living space to a patio, and also for total outdoor marine environments by choosing the stainless steel 316L Marine Grade metal parts featured in the wide optional offer.
